St Patricks day project #2

My second project was to decorate my old cabinet with some green.
1. I went to the google search engine and typed in free st patricks day subway art and found the one i liked best ( there are tons to choose from). I bought a cheap 8x10 frame from the dollar store to put it in.
2. The beautiful flowers my hubby sent me for valentines day had some really neat twigs in them and I loved them so much I saved them because I knew eventually I would think of something to do with them, and I was right I decided to add it to the top of my cabinet and I saw a similar idea for Easter with eggs hung from a branch , so I decided to use a shamrock cookie cutter and some green construction paper and cut out about 6. Then I added some ornament hooks and hung them from the branch ( obviously)
3. The third thing is my wooden shamrock, we cut it about 8 inches wide by 6 tall and added a base so that it would stand up then bought some of the craft paint from Walmart in a clover green and painted. ( for the pattern we just used one of the cardboard shamrocks I had bought at our local dollar tree, they had a package of 12 various sizes for $1)

Thanks for stopping by!
